Update To Fortnites Creator Guidelines

Today, Fortnite made an update to the creator guidelines, providing clarity on what is allowed to be included on promotional content.

Rule 1.13 recieved some clarification.

TLDR:

• Creators now must not incorporate elements that mislead players into getting XP gains, in-game items, or Quests.
• Creators also are no longer allowed to use terms such as “AFK,” “XP,” “Coin farm,” or “Coin slide” in their name, description, thumbnail, loading screen text, or lobby background**.
• Creators also may not use images of Fortnite coins or similar coins in your thumbnails and lobby backgrounds.

** It is important to note, creators may still use this terminology inside of their creative maps.

This rule has been added to try to prevent click-bait content in discovery, and to prevent maps that farm playtime.
